Hi and welcome to Geeks to Go!

Before we please move HijackThis out of the Temporary files and into a separate folder of its own in program files, so that it can function properly and create back-ups which can be restored, if necessary and then post a new log.

Check this out for info on how to tighten your security settings and some good free tools to help prevent this from happening again.

You should also trim down your start-ups as there are too many running. You can research them at these sites and if they aren’t required at start-up then you can uncheck them in msconfig via Start - Run - type msconfig and then click on the start-up tab.
